Sewing for Kenya

Sewing for Kenya

The summer 2020 trip to Kenya has been cancelled (see original article, below.) But the clothing you've been making will definitely get to Kenya sometime in the future!

Please finish your projects and hang on to them until Umoja can help us get to Kenya. Carol Frohlich will coordinate the collection of shorts and dresses as soon we are able.

Thank you to all the sewers!

In July, fourteen Northminster members will be traveling to Kenya. Most of the orphaned girls that we will encounter have one outfit to wear daily - their school uniform. Would you like to make some little dresses for Africa?

Carol Frolich has all the information needed to make these simple, colorful dresses. You can even use a pillowcase. Go to Nancy 's Notions /Little Dresses for Africa online.

The girls will range in size from 2 to 11. The boys need shorts in solid colors, too. A Simplicity or McCall pattern will have several sizes.
